It has been suggested that the higher concentrations of uranium found towards the outside of some bones may indicate that the uranium h...

Measurements and relationships of diagenetically altered bone from three archaeological sites. (1995)
Journal Article
Hedges, R., Millard, A., & Pike, A. (1995). Measurements and relationships of diagenetically altered bone from three archaeological sites. Journal of Archaeological Science, 22, 201-209. https://doi.org/10.1006/jasc.1995.0022

Four diagenetic parameters have been chosen to represent the state of diagenesis of bone buried on archaeological sites. They are: histological preservation, protein content, crystallinity, and porosity. How these parameters are measured is described...

An Anglo-Saxon landmark rediscovered: the stanford/stanbricge of the Ducklington and Witney charters. (1992)
Journal Article
Blair, J., & Millard, A. (1992). An Anglo-Saxon landmark rediscovered: the stanford/stanbricge of the Ducklington and Witney charters. Oxoniensia, 57, 342-348

Notes the rediscovery of a paved causeway crossing a stream, the only previous evidence for its existence being AS writings. There is discussion of the documentary and archaeological evidence, providing insight into AS use of the terms `ford' and `br...
